Rhode held his sword and knitted his brows at this scene. The pitch-black and silver flames interwove to form a defense barrier around him. However, this was far from enough because they began feeling tremendous pressure after the centipede split into thousands of smaller centipedes. Each of the meter-long creatures was built with four metallic limbs and their both ends had creepy, sharp mouth parts. Although everyone's attacks could effectively eliminate them, the creatures would instantly regenerate and increase in numbers.
"This is getting tough."
Rhode mumbled under his breath. At this moment, Celestina scoffed and brandished her pitch-black chain sword, slicing into half one of the creatures that pounced on her. Then, the dark flames surged on the wounds and the creature squirmed on the ground. But shortly after, two metallic limbs grew from its severed wounds and it stood up once again.
